Egbert, McDaniel & Swartz, PLLC has 54 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems and 5347 career applications. The active docket and application history indicate a substantial prosecution practice in this technology grouping.
The resolved allowance rate is 83.33%, with an average of 1.85 office actions per allowance. Together, the figures show an outcome record alongside a relatively low measured action burden for matters reaching allowance, giving practitioners a basis to evaluate both results and prosecution activity.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 12 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 12 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 5 (10%) |
| §103 only | 11 (21%) |
| §102 only | 1 (2%) |
| §112 only | 5 (10%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 30 (58%) |
